Ingredients
For the dip:
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 cup plain cottage cheese (I use Daisy brand 4% milkfat small curd)
- 1/2 cup chopped pickles (diced into 1/4-inch pieces for texture)
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat for best creaminess)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
- 2 tsp white wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp pickle juice
For the garnish:
- chopped chives
- olive oil
- diced pickles
- black pepper (freshly ground for better aroma)
Step 1: Blend the Cottage Cheese
In a small food processor, place 1 cup of cottage cheese and pulse until smooth.
This will form the creamy base for your dip.
Step 2: Combine Ingredients
Transfer the smooth cottage cheese to a bowl.
Add 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of chopped pickles, 2 tablespoons of pickle juice, 2 teaspoons of white wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh dill, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh chives, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the bowl.
Step 3: Mix and Adjust Flavor
Mix the ingredients together using a spoon or a small rubber spatula until well combined.
Taste the dip and adjust the salt or vinegar if needed to suit your taste preferences.
Step 4: Garnish the Dip
Garnish the dip with a drizzle of olive oil, more chopped pickles, chopped chives, and a sprinkle of black pepper for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Serve the dip with crackers or fresh vegetable sticks such as cucumber, celery, carrots, or sliced bell peppers.
Enjoy your fresh, tangy, and creamy cottage cheese pickle dip!
